Acrobat 9 + comments + replies + filters = deleted replies?

Hi there,
I am using Acrobat 9.3.4 Professional for Windows and have discovered a destructive problem that I dearly would like to solve - and am wondering whether you could help.
Here is the scenario:
1) I open a PDF file with embedded comments.
2) I ask Acrobat to show the comments list.
3) I ask Acrobat to filter the comments by Show by Status > Review > None.
4) I right-click on a comment and select "Reply".
5) I type some text in the resulting reply box.
6) I right-click on the comment again and select Set Status > Review > Completed. The comment disappears from the filtered list, as expected.
7) I ask Acrobat to stop filtering comments (Show All Comments).
After Step 7, if I look at the comment to which I replied in step 4, its reply text is blank. The text I typed in step 5 is gone.
I use the reply option to give important feedback to the comments, so naturally if all my replies are being deleted, it's destructive and disconcerting.
Has anyone else ever experienced this? Any ideas how to solve it?
Thanks!

Hey Anthony
Acrobat automatically updated on a couple of our machines here in the studio today and we are now experiencing exactly the same issue as you, except now, we don't even have Acrobat 8 PPD settings to revert to! The update has removed both settings. We installed Snow Leopard last week and updated to CS4 and did have some 9.0 PPD issues, but they were resolved when we distilled because Distiller recognised that the PPD was missing and created it for us to use. We tried the same technique this time, but to no avail.
We are using "Generic Imagesetter" as our PPD device option and then distilling as normal. We've yet to see if this is acceptable when we go to production, but we're relatively confident because it's a production-quality setting. We are working on a couple of tests now, which we are going to send to a couple of printers. I'll update you on the situation once we've heard back from them.
Absolutely ridiculous that this has occurred though. Doesn't somebody test these updates before they're sent out? Why has an Acrobat update decided to strip PPD settings out? And I can't believe no-one has replied to your question since you posted. What happened to customer support, eh?

  • Why is Acrobat Comment via Email better than Word?

    I have to do a major presentation on Commenting using Acrobat
    Commenting via email. I have used Adobe Captivate to create a great
    presentation but I have just anticipated that someone will ask me
    why they should use Adobe rather than Word. Although I am convinced
    Word must be inferior to Acrobat I don't know exactly why.
    I have to do the presentation Monday afternoon. Can anyone
    give me a great list of reasons?

    Thanks I did some thinking and here are a few more:
    More ways to comment e.g. call outs, high lighter, thought
    bubbles, arrows as well as text edits.
    Security.
    Better tracking; who has it been sent to, remind recalcitrant
    reviewees, sort comments, ability to invite new members. Many
    people can easily contribute.
    The author is in total control of the document.
    No issues with mixing up versions.

  • Acrobat/Reader cannot cope with internal Webserver connectivity problems, leading to comments being hidden/deleted. Any thoughts?

    Adobe Acrobat/Reader do not cope with interruptions to access to the internal WebServer hosting the PDF/XML review files.
    Steps to reproduce the issue:
    Connection is lost to the WebServer hosting the PDF review files.
    After connection to the WebServer is regained, access to the PDF review files is blocked by Adobe Acrobat/Reader.
    Sometimes this can be resolved by deleting the entire contents of the folder:
              C:\Users\<user-name>\AppData\LocalLow\Adobe\Acrobat\11.0\Synchronizer
    NOTES:
    We have experienced this behaviour especially when connecting to the WebServer via VPN. I reckon the connectivity issues could be initially our problem, that Acrobat/Reader simply do not handle.
    Clearing the contents of the Synchronizer folder does not always work.
    Team members have also seen situations where significant numbers of review comments or status values have been not been displayed, but exist in the XML review files. In some cases comments/status values have been automatically deleted without warning from the Adobe review XML files.
    PDF reviews are sent out via email as links to the PDF review file hosted on an internal WebServer.
    Writers and reviewers in the team either have either:
    Acrobat XI Pro 11.0.08 with Reader 11.0.08
    Acrobat XI Pro 9.5.5 with Reader 11.0.08
    I have personally experienced the above behaviour with Acrobat XI Pro 11.0.08 and Reader 11.0.08.
    Could this experience be connected the Synchronizer (http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/known-issues-acrobat-xi-reader.html )?
    For example, where a reviewer uses a different version of Acrobat/Reader?
    Could anyone please provide a list of compatible versions of Acrobat/Reader?
    Expected results:
    Adobe Acrobat/Reader should really handle connection issues with a warning and later check for recovered connections.
    However, what appears to be happening is that Acrobat/Reader writes some sort of blocking code to the Synchronizer folder that prevents future checks of the PDF review files on the review WebServer.
    As far as I understand, the connection issues are not caused by Adobe software, however the problems we are experiencing relate to how Adobe Acrobat/Reader handle this loss of connection.
    Plea for Help!
    I have checked and the experience of missing comments and persistent "connectivity issues" seems to be a reported but sadly outstanding issue...
    This has been an ongoing headache for some time, so solutions would be great, but any thoughts or suggestions are welcome...?
         For example, has anyone using SharePoint to host PDF reviews experienced anything similar?
    Many thanks!

    Adobe Acrobat 11.0.09 with Microsoft SharePoint Repository Trial Update
    We've completed week one of a three week trial (see above) that will go on until Friday 24th October.
    We currently have just four PDF files out for review that make use of the SharePoint repository.
    To-date:
    Each review file has had multiple concurrent reviewers posting comments over several days from both over the office LAN and also via VPN when working remotely.
    Dynamic stamps seem to be working as hoped and are all visible.
    We have not experienced any connection-type issues and the we have not had reason to clear out the Synchronizer folder as described above.
    Counter balance:
    I have experienced the situation with a remote VPN connection, where Adobe Acrobat could not connect to our internal WebServer repository. At the same time, I was able to connect to PDF review files hosted in SharePoint.
    Summary:
    The experience so far does suggest that problems are caused by the an inconsistent connection to the WebServer repository (especially over VPN) combined with Adobe Acrobat/Reader's inability to cope with the resulting situation.
    At the moment I must say that while it is early days, I am hopeful that the combination of SharePoint as the repository and the update to Adobe Acrobat/Reader 11.0.09 will continue to prove to be reliable.
    I'll provide an update to this post on Friday 24th October...
    Here's hoping!

  • 10.6.8 user receives Acrobat X crash when deleting pages in large PDF

    I have a user that consistently has Acrobat X Pro crash on his whenever he is deleting pages from a PDF that has a large amount of pages.
    He says the crashing is regular with PDFs that consist of 10+ pages.  He shift+clicks to select multiple pages and upon hitting the Delete key, the program will freeze and eventually crash.
    He sent me over a crash log of the most recent event, if that is of any help.  I've pasted the crashlog header and the crashed thread:

  • Attempting to automate shared review with XI - deleted comments won't delete

    We've been using the old/depricated browser based reviews for years.  We've integrated that process with several of our line of business apps.  The shared review process in XI is cumbersome to start for large groups of people from within acrobat, but we need the be able to use the shared review process in our workflows. (Looking at livecycle, but the pricing is jaw dropping.)
    So we're attempting to inject the needed javascript into our pdfs to start the review process (using Delphi, with some Debenu components) .  We can do this successfully, but have noticed that deleting comments from the review are not actually deleting.
    For example, using the following document level javascript in our test document:
    com.adobe.acrobat.SharedReview.Register
    (function () {if (app.viewerVersion >= 8 && (!app.viewerType.match(/Reader/) || requestPermission(permission.annot, permission.create) == permission.granted))
    {var msg = {doc: this, initiator: (new String("[email protected]")),
    id: (new String("7b68a5719741a54b9437a53f848e6588")),
    source: (new String("smb://loki/deptshare/information%20systems/temp/SR/brokefax0020-0020Copy_review.p df__7b68a5719741a54b9437a53f848e6588/")),
    driver: (new String("urn://ns.adobe.com/Collaboration/SharedReview/SMB")),
    invitees: (new String("[email protected]")),
    sentDate: (new Date(1373303925999)),
    deadDate: (new Date(1374476400963)),
    requireSave: (new Boolean(true)),
    cc: (new String("")),
    distributionMethod: (new String("UPLOAD")),
    versionInfo: (new Number(11.003)),
    accessLevel: (new Number(0))};
    Collab.registerReview(msg);}})()
    will trigger the review, and accept comments from users, but if we attempt to delete any comments, and then publish those changes, the comments are coming back.
    The comment XML file is indeed reflecting that the comment is deleted, but reopening the PDF shows the comments. 
    The comments are not being embedded into the pdf, as I've locked it with security to disallow editing the pdf.
    I have noticed reading and writing to a file during the commenting process:
    C:\Users\kjohnson\AppData\LocalLow\Adobe\Acrobat\11.0\Synchronizer\resources
    This is using Acrobat Pro 11.004 on Windows 8.1 or Windows 7 SP1. (both x86)

    I hate to be the bearer of bad news but you are going down a rabbit hole of sorrow and tears.  A couple of things about what you are attempting to do.
    The JavaScript API that starts a Shared Review is undocumented.  It's not in the Acrobat SDK and if you run into problems you are pretty much on your own.  LiveCylce unfortunately is not a solution in this case either.  It has no Shared Review capability in it like it used to have for the old and deprecated Browser Based Review.

  • Can't Print to PDF using Acrobat 8 Prof after deleting demo of v 10

    Hi, I made the mistake of trying version 10 to see if it had any improvements over what I was using v 8.1.5 for, found that there were none, so I deleted it and now I can't print to PDF because it's looking for v 10. Unfortunately had to move recently and can no longer find the original disk to do a new installation. Does anyone know how to redirect the driver to the original v 8? I can open v 8 and everything else seems to work ok, just when I try to print to create a PDF it can't do it.

    Thanks for the quick reply Bill! I had tried that before and tried it again. Finally got things to work by copying all the contents of my Acrobat sub-directory from the v 8 folder to the hollow v 10 folder. Now it works again! Thanks for you help and inspiration to figure this thing out. Am now a very happy camper and didn't need to tear my house appart to find the original disk!

  • Adobe Acrobat 8 how to delete it completely?

    I have to deactviate Adobe CS3 from my old computer to reinstal into my new computer. Now I have a problem downloading Adobe Reader on my old computer as Adobe Acrobat is still there after I delete the Adobe CS3. Can someone show me how to remove Acrobat completely so I can install Reader?

    Download and run the Microsoft installer cleanup utility and get rid of the old program then install the new one.

  • Hidden Acrobat comments exposed through Apple Mail Maver-ick

    Acrobat Pro on Maverick has botched up the capability for me to hide areas of an edited Acrobat document. I created many PDF documents and over the last 5 years.  I will create a rectangle of solid white in the comments tool and a cover selected areas of copy I want to hide from the intended recipient, or add typwritter comments over the white box I create to modify the original content. This process of editing my estimates worked well in all previous versions of Mac OS until Maverick.
    I have not upgraded my macbook and it created the covered file which I sent through G-Mail then opened it in my iMac with Mavericks and Apple Mail and the type was exposed the copy I covered up. 
    Mavericks has messed up Acrobat's commenting function.

    I hate to break it to you but maybe your system for redacting content was flawed for all these years.
    The comments box isn't intended for this & you may have been leaving them exposed in other PDF readers. Simply layering white comment boxes doesn't necessarily remove the underlying text, especially when the text is 'image based' on another layer. It's equivalent to using a post-it note to redact a physical document, the text still exists if you know how to lift the layer.
    PDF Pen is another app that can redact sections if you want another tool. Acrobat should have an actual redaction tool, check it's help. Also look for updates as Eric suggested. 
    Mavericks may actually be saving you from an incorrect assumption.

  • I just installed Acrobat. Can I delete Adobe Reader?

    I just installed Acrobat Standard. Can I delete Adobe Reader?

    I would actually go further than what ~graffiti says and make a backup of my system first.  The last time I did this (except I uninstalled Acrobat not Reader) it stuffed up my PC properly.  There was no problem while I had both installed, it was the uninstall.  Alternatively, make Acrobat open everything by default and just ignore your installation of Reader.
    I'd be open to correction on this but it shouldn't be using up any more system resources having both than having one because they share the same background processes.

  • Acrobat Designer -Show/Hide/Delete Pages

    I have a PDF that is built in Designer 7.0.41126, it has 3 static data capture pages and 6 dynamic pages that are set to hidden at the begining of the process. Once the user captures the data they click a generate button and the script makes the pages visible based on the data entered. This works great and based on the data the document can grow up to 16 pages.
    The first issue I have is that if you save the document in Acrobat 7 Professional (not reader) and re-open the document the dyanamic pages are hidden again and you only have the 3 static pages. Is there anyway to make the dynamic pages stay visible?
    The second issue is that I want to be able to delete the data capture pages so the user can send the document to a customer without the data capture pages. I read that the javascript funtion deletepages does not work in a Designer 7 document. Any suggestions? The customer will more then likely be using reader to view the document.
    Thanks in advance.

    > and involve programatically manipulating the data DOM.
    I have gotten to the point were I want to manipulate the DOM.  I want to delete large portions during runtime with javascript.  Am I trying to delete "XML Source" or DOM (I'm not sure).  Using the presence attribute is not sufficient any more because the file has gotten so large, the whole point of "deleting" pages is to shrink the file size. 
    I understand how to read XML source, and I understand JavaScript.  I don't even know if what I want to do is possible.  In a form with the xml source below, can I delete the subform node and all its children with javascript at runtime?

  • Filters Deleted automatically -----AGAIN!!!

    Verizon, what'd'hell?
    All of the email messages in my IN box were automatically deleted a couple of weeks ago and at the same time, all of my filters were deleted.
    I login a few minutes ago and now all of the filters I re-entered are gone. It has taken me a week to re-enter the filters and now they are gone AGAIN.
    I believe it's time for me to dump your crappy business. You need to clean your software development house because they are failing miserably.

  • Acrobat Help | Rotating, moving, deleting, and renumbering PDF pages

    This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/manipulating-deleting-renumbering-pdf-pages.html

    Acrobat does not go through images to evaluate the content. You are making a judgement call when you do it. With your file I was able to use the crop tool for 2-5. P. 6 showed up offset and had to be changed. P. 1 was centered and different from the rest. I would use the odd and even features and then simply go back through and look for the pages that need to be touched up. That should do the trick. Supposedly Reduce File size will make the crop complete, but I have never found that to work well - it may be worth a shot. Another option is to print to a new PDF to delete the cropping.
